Adorable cottage with a great location. Just a block from the beach and could hear the waves from our patio. Could walk to a wide variety of restaurants. Definitely would stay again.
We enjoyed our time at the Whale House. It’s a small place as depicted in the photos but well appointed, comfortable and cozy. It’s very close to the beach and lots of restaurants. The fenced yard was great for our pup who was a welcomed guest as well.
My wife was at Brooks for months and was time to stay close to Jax beach and nearby restaurants. Location is terrific and walked the beach daily and recharged my own battery. Chris was easy to connect with and helpful. I was very comfortable during my stay.
Location and amenities exceeded our expectations. This was our first time staying in this area and we are looking forward to returning. The fresh flowers upon our arrival was a nice touch!
The Whale is a lovely, cozy little cottage. The layout is quirky, but gives it character. The personal touches by the host were noticeable and greatly appreciated, especially by my wife. We greatly enjoyed the very close proximity to the beach, only a short block away. The beach wagon was a great benefit!
Cottage was perfect! Cozy and very clean. Loved that it was a short walk away from the beach and restaurants. We had a few questions and Chris responded immediately with a resolution. I would recommend this location without a doubt!
First, I have to say "WOW"!!! This place was awesome and as we say in the South "Cute as a Button!" Chris put little touches in this Cottage that made it a HOME, not just a place to stay. Bed was very comfortable, pull-out sofa was nice as well per our adult son. Also nice to sit on for watching football. The short walk to the beach was an added bonus, which our little Maltese really enjoyed. We will definitely stay again when coming to Jacksonville Beach!
We so thoroughly enjoyed our stay that we will be back the next time we travel to Jax Beach to visit family.
The space has an easy flow for visiting and dining. Great kitchen. Very well-appointed, and so nicely decorated! Chris has thought of absolutely everything you might need for your stay.
The location was perfect. We could hear the ocean, just one block away… and it is within walking distance to a number of restaurants and shop. Very nice setting for sitting outside.
We would recommend this listing highly!
My husband and I spent 9 days in this charming cottage! The size was perfect for the 2 of us (and our dog!) with enough space to combine a few days of work with a few days of fun! The location of this property can't be beat - so close to the beach and all of the wonderful things the Jax Beach neighborhood has to offer! The property had everything we needed including a very comfortable bed, good size bathroom, convenient (and large!) washer and dryer, and a great patio space. The Roku TV was easy for us to use with all of our subscription services. The kitchen was decently equipped with everything we needed for our stay (although to be fair, we didn't cook any major meals). We enjoyed meeting 2 sets of visitors to the cottage in the back - definitely want to look at that one for a potential rental, too. We will definitely be back!
Loved staying at The Whale Cottage! Really cute inside and out with everything you need for a wonderful stay. Comfortable bed, great spaces to relax and the welcome touches were so appreciated!
Perfect in every way. The cottage felt like our own private retreat and our Westie/Poo appreciated having free range of the yard too. We were a block from the beach and walkable distance to shops and restaurants. The fresh flowers and pecan cookies were a warm welcome and much enjoyed. Cannot say enough good things. A great place to relax and enjoy.
We loved this property! It was the perfect size for my husband and me. Offered everything we needed for a weekend get-away, and the proximity to the beach was great.Highly recommend The Refinery for a nice dinner out. It is 1/2 block from the house, so the perfect location.
The Whale Beachside Cottage is about as close to the beach as you can get in Jax Beach. It is a very short one block walk and you are on the sand! Chris presents a lovely place to stay, very clean, well maintained, supplied with pretty much everything you need in the kitchen, bathroom, and supplies for the beach to make your stay comfortable and easy. This was our second stay in the cottage and we will return.
